Dimly

Dimly is an open-source utility for macOS that consolidates functions like brightness control, sleep commands, and monitor management into one control layer. It uses DDC/CI for brightness and power management when available, and switches to software overlay when DDC is unsupported. The application allows individual control of each display, including renaming, managing blackout states, and initiating sleep or wake actions. It also includes features like hotkeys, Quick Actions integration, and a "panic shortcut." Used by professionals in color-critical work and complex multi-screen setups, Dimly replaces inconsistent display behavior. As an open-source software, Dimly ensures privacy and reliability, operates without background daemons, and securely delivers updates. It transforms disjointed monitor setups into a cohesive system, offering control over every display from the macOS menu bar.
